Enough MILK?, Enough COFFEE?, Water Care

The temperature for this function can be set to LOW, NORMAL and XHIGH (chapter 14.1; example 3)

You can override the WATER PORTION during the hot water release with the Rotary Dial.

You can re-program the hot water portion (chapter 14.1).

11.VISUAL PROGRAMMING OF BEVERAGE PORTIONS Chapters 14 and 14.1 explain how to re-program all parameters (volume, strength, temperature) for the beverage buttons. Re-programming the cup size for coffee and milk can also be done during beverage preparation as follows:

• Push and hold the beverage button you want to re-program until display shows ENOUGH COFFEE? or ENOUGH MILK? This way you can make sure your (cappuccino) cup is completely filled with milk and coffee.

Example:

Visually re-programming the Cappuccino button (Fig 3.6).

COFFEE READY.

• Prepare the Cappuccino Systems (milk container etc) to make a cappuccino and place your cappuccino cup under the frothXpress.

• Push and hold the Cappuccino button until display shows

ENOUGH MILK?

• When the desired amount of milk and milk froth is in your cup, push the Cappuccino button again. The display now shows

ENOUGH COFFEE?

• When enough coffee has been added to your frothed milk push the Cappuccino button again. CONFIRMED ✓, then

ENJOY, then COFFEE READY.

The next time you push the Cappuccino button, the S9 OT will produce that amount of milk and coffee.

12. WATER CARE

The S9 OT works with: • tap water • bottled water • distilled water. We recommend using tap water or bottled water. Distilled water has no minerals and does not improve the taste of coffee. Water that is heated inside the machine leads to calcium deposits. Tap water has a varying degree of water hardness (chapter 12a). Most bottled water has a low level of water hardness. IMPORTANT: do not use carbonated water or any other liquid in the water tank.

You have the following options to take care of the water.

•Decalcifying System (chapter 17.1).

•Clearyl Water Filter Cartridge (chapter 13a).

The machine is factory pre-set to automatically remind you to decalcify.

12a. WATER HARDNESS MONITOR

Your S9 OT is set to a water hardness of 10ºdH and will auto- matically indicate when it is time to perform a decalcifying cycle. You can change the water hardness setting from 1º to 30ºdH. If you are not sure about the hardness of your water, ask your local water company for the "Water Hardness in Grains." The machine displays the water hardness in the German hardness scale which is a bit different from the American "Grain" scale (see chart below). You can also use the water hardness indicator strip ("Aquadur" in Welcome Pack) to determine the water hardness:

•Insert the strip for one second into the water you want to use. Shake off any access water and wait for one minute.
